ATLETAS TRANSEXUAIS NO BRASIL
A presente obra discorre a respeito de uma das várias razões que justificam a relevância constitucional do desporto no Brasil, qual seja, a sua capacidade de veiculação da cidadania e da dignidade da pessoa humana. Nesse âmbito, uma das maiores discussões decorrente dos Jogos Olímpicos de Tóquio (2022) se deu em razão da presença de Laurel Hubbard, mulher trans, na competição de halterofilismo. Com a sua participação, reacendeu-se a importante discussão acerca da participação dos atletas trans no esporte, em especial o de alto rendimento: seria justa a sua participação? Quais seriam os impactos da sua inclusão? Teriam eles alguma espécie de vantagem física em detriment...
Understanding Institutions
A groundbreaking new synthesis and theory of social institutions Understanding Institutions proposes a new unified theory of social institutions that combines the best insights of philosophers and social scientists who have written on this topic. Francesco Guala presents a theory that combines the features of three influential views of institutions: as equilibria of strategic games, as regulative rules, and as constitutive rules. Guala explains key institutions like money, private property, and marriage, and develops a much-needed unification of equilibrium- and rules-based approaches. Although he uses game theory concepts, the theory is presented in a simple, clear style that is accessible ...

Exposure Assessment in Environmental Epidemiology
This completely updated edition of Exposure Assessment in Environmental Epidemiology offers a practical introduction to exposure assessment methodologies in environmental epidemiologic studies. In addition to methods for traditional methods -- questionnaires, biomonitoring -- this new edition is expanded to include geographic information systems, modeling, personal sensoring, remote sensing, and OMICs technologies. In addition, each of these methods is contextualized within a recent epidemiology study, maximizing illustration for students and those new to these to these techniques. With clear writing and extensive illustration, this book will be useful to anyone interested in exposure assessment, regardless of background.
The Metabolism of Islands
This book makes the case for why we should care about islands and their sustainability. Islands are hotspots of biocultural diversity and home to 600 million people that depend on one-sixth of the earth’s total area, including the surrounding oceans, for their subsistence. Today, they are at the frontlines of climate change and face an existential crisis. Islands are, however, potential “hubs of innovation” that are uniquely positioned to be leaders in sustainability and climate action. This volume argues that a full-fledged program on “island industrial ecology” is urgently needed, with the aim of offering policy-relevant insights and strategies to sustain small islands in an era of global environmental change. The nine contributions in this volume cover a wide range of applications of socio-metabolic research, from flow accounts to stock analysis and their relationship to services in space and time. They offer insights into how reconfiguring patterns of resource use will allow island governments to build resilience and adapt to the challenges of climate change.
